Hope House—SEPTEMBER Focus

Hope House offers hope to women (and their children) who have been abandoned by their spouses. Hope House first provides accommodations and meals (communal, everyone helps) for immediate needs. Followed by job and life skills training, and clothing. Hope House is always in need of the sort of clothing worn for job interviews and office settings. And eventually help the women in finding a place to live; whatever is needed to get their clients back into the mainstream. The women at Hope House face daunting problems most of us can’t imagine. Please be generous in every way possible.
